Taste Alike: Sizzler's Malibu Chicken and Sauce

I didn't even know they still made Malibu Chicken.Heck, I didn't even know there were still Sizzler Restaurants around.(Apparently, they are still running in the Rockies.)

I used to order this as a kid...and I still make them today. In about 18 minutes I can make a hot, flavorful dinner without dirtying a single bowl. (Actually, that's wrong. It's EXACTLY one bowl.)

I take a MorningStar Original Chicken patty and bake it for 16-18 minutes, as directed. No brainer here. A few minutes before it's done, I place a slice of ham and Swiss cheese on top. A few tablespoons of Hellman's mayo, a few squirts of Plochman's yellow mustard, and a pinch of sugar makes a nice tangy sauce.

Voila!My version of Sizzler's Malibu Chicken for about $2 and 18 minutes.That's a LOT better than 16.99 or so...(Not to mention that whole "Having to drive West of the Mississippi" part!)

Hey, so what are YOUR favorite "Taste-Alikes?"And, if you make this, please leave a comment and let me know what you think.

P.S. From their picture, it looks like Sizzler is now putting the ham between two slices of Swiss. More cheese, yep, I like that adjustment. *Wink*)

I too, always order Malibu Chicken. We still have a Sizzler here in my hometown, Hemet, Ca, although we haven't been there in years. We used to take the kids there for their birthday dinners & they loved it. My daughter's coming over for dinner tonight & I thought I'd make Malibu Chicken. Thanks for the sauce recipe!
